A moderator
of a Facebook group
designed for writers
has been questioning
whether or not
she should continue to write.
She has been posting
daily
about how rough the industry is,
pointing out
all of the bad things
that have happened,
all of the reasons
why the average writer
can’t make a success of it.
She has been doing this
for the past year or so.
(She doesn’t post
about the opportunities available
to all of us.)
Over the past month,
over half of the members
of the group
have quit writing
(have stopped
building their businesses).
EVERYTHING we do
is marketing.
We’re selling something
with every word
we utter.
Ensure you’re promoting
what you want to promote.
